Our verdict
A fit for someone who wants a bezel solitaire necklace and wants Natural and Lab Grown prices side by side across weights from .25ct to 1.00ct, in white, yellow or rose gold. Look elsewhere if you need a stated chain length, a named grading report or a diamond shape. The main caveat is the wide price range, $795 to $5,995, so settle the weight and diamond type before choosing a metal.

Why 3.6/5: Lifted by stated diamond color and clarity; held back by the store's no-returns, no-refunds policy (a damaged or defective item gets an exchange or repair).
Diamond Bezel is sold in 30 variants built from five average carat weights, from .25ct to 1.00ct, a choice of Natural or Lab Grown diamonds and three gold colors, 14kt white, yellow or rose. The listing grades the Natural stones G/H, I1 and the Lab Grown stones G/H, SI. Prices start at $795 and reach $5,995, and the necklace is handmade, with 2-3 weeks to allow for it to be made.

Shipping, returns and warranty
Shipping: the Shipping & Returns page says US orders over $100 ship free and that fine jewelry, diamonds and engagement rings are handcrafted to order and usually fulfilled within 1 to 4 weeks, sent by UPS 2-day shipping with an adult signature required. The FAQ gives other figures, an estimated 4 to 6 weeks for custom rings and generally 6 to 8 weeks of production from payment, and says the checkout page shows an estimate, so confirm the date there. Fine jewelry ships only within the United States according to the FAQ; international orders are limited to the Demi-Fine Collection. This product page says: "This Necklace is handmade, so please allow 2-3 weeks for it to be made." Returns: the Shipping & Returns page says the store cannot accept returns on these limited, handmade or made-to-order items; if an item arrives damaged or defective, contact the store within 14 days of delivery for an exchange or repair of the same item, which must be in its original packaging with no sign of wear. The FAQ says all fine jewelry sales are final and that returns, refunds and exchanges are not accepted, with a repair offered for faulty items, and the sales terms add that sale items cannot be returned or exchanged. The refund policy page grants a 14-day cooling-off right to orders shipped into the European Union. This product page also says: "No refunds, exchanges, or cancellations on fine jewelry orders." Warranty: the FAQ says the store guarantees its fine jewelry against manufacturing defects at the time of delivery for life and repairs a confirmed defect at no cost, while damage from wear and tear or trauma is quoted before any work. Excluded examples include scratching, loss of center stones, product loss or theft, discoloration from chemicals or make-up and prongs that wear down over time. Discount code: the sales terms say codes must be entered at checkout, only one code can be used per order and promotions exclude gift cards and custom orders unless stated otherwise; some products can also be excluded, so check that the FACESTORE code takes 10% off this item before you pay.
Before you buy
Lola Ade says it is a Black woman-owned fine jewelry brand based in Los Angeles that sells online only, founded by Pamela Adewoyin James, whom its About page calls a GIA-certified diamond professional and practicing attorney. The page says she has handcrafted jewelry since 2010 and launched an engagement ring collection in 2024. A July 2026 SHEEN Magazine interview tells a similar story, but it is a profile, not a product test, and searches on 20 October 2026 found no Trustpilot, BBB or Reddit page for the store. The store's own reviews page shows 40 reviews, 38 of them five-star and 2 four-star; that widget is the store's display and was not verified. Its giving program ("a portion of every fine jewelry purchase" supports clean water access in Africa, and a portion of each engagement ring sale per its community page) names no amount. The FAQ says the store's diamonds come from suppliers that follow strict ethical standards, are conflict-free and comply with the Kimberley Process; it publishes no supplier list. There is no showroom, so you cannot see a piece in person, and the pages disagree on production time and on whether a damaged item gets an exchange or only a repair; ask for the estimate and the remedy in writing before you order.
What we liked
- Stone grades are stated for both types: G/H, I1 for Natural and G/H, SI for Lab Grown
- Five carat weights, from .25ct to 1.00ct, each with a stated price range
- Three gold colors, with no price difference shown between them
- Natural and Lab Grown prices are shown side by side: $1,295-$5,995 against $795-$1,495
- A production time is given: allow 2-3 weeks
Worth noting
- No chain length is given, and the variant list has no length option
- The weights are average carat weights, and no grading report or lab is named
- The listing does not give the diamond's shape or the bezel size
- The Natural clarity grade (I1) differs from the Lab Grown grade (SI), so the two types are not like for like
- Prices climb steeply with weight: the 1.00ct range is $1,495-$5,995
Questions before you buy
Which diamonds does the Diamond Bezel Necklace use?
The buyer chooses Natural diamonds, graded G/H, I1, or Lab Grown diamonds, graded G/H, SI. The weights are described as average carat weights: .25ct, .33ct, .50ct, .75ct and 1.00ct.
How do Natural and Lab Grown prices compare?
In the variant list, Lab Grown spans $795-$1,495 and Natural spans $1,295-$5,995, and both rise with carat weight.
Which gold colors are offered?
14kt white, yellow and rose gold. The variant list shows no price difference between them.
Can I return it if I change my mind?
No. The Shipping & Returns page says the store cannot accept returns on its handmade, limited or made-to-order items, and the FAQ says all fine jewelry sales are final with no returns, refunds or exchanges. If an item arrives damaged or defective, contact the store within 14 days of delivery for an exchange or repair.
How long does a made-to-order piece take?
The pages differ. Shipping & Returns says fine jewelry is usually fulfilled within 1 to 4 weeks; the FAQ says an estimated 4 to 6 weeks for custom rings and generally 6 to 8 weeks of production from payment, with an estimate on the checkout page. Ask the store for a date in writing.
Is financing available?
The FAQ says financing is available through Shop Pay and tells buyers to contact Shop Pay for details; it lists no terms or rates, so check them at checkout.
Are lab-grown diamonds real diamonds?
GIA says laboratory-grown diamonds have the same crystal structure as natural diamonds, tightly bonded carbon atoms, and nearly the same chemical, optical and physical properties. By eye the difference can be indistinguishable, but gemological laboratories can detect the different growth history with advanced instruments. They are grown by high-pressure high-temperature (HPHT) or chemical vapor deposition (CVD).

- The store's pages disagree on production time (1 to 4 weeks, 4 to 6 weeks, 6 to 8 weeks) and on exchange versus repair for a damaged item.
- The store's 40-review widget and its clean-water giving claim are its own statements and were not verified.
- Whether the FACESTORE code applies to this item was not tested; the sales terms exclude custom orders and some products.
